    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I listened to the Chairperson and looked at Clause 39(2) on page 12 and I remembered the debate that we had last time on this Bill. It was based more on the “hot thing;” the report of the National Security Department. Subsection 3 says that all the staff of the Auditor-General carrying out the audit under this section shall be vetted by the authorized government vetting agency. I read a sinister motive in this clause because what we expect to happen is that the same National Security Department will pick the team to audit that department from a well organized group which is friendly to them. Indeed, the vetting Government agency will come from either Parliament or this department. To leave it the way it is, means that the vetting agency can be anybody who works with the Government, whether from the department itself or any other person working for the Government. I see some difficulties if we pass this Bill with subsection 3 remaining as it is. Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you."
